Rationale
The Senior High School (SHS) Education in the Philippines has undergone a
significant change in its curriculum and structure since its implementation in 2016. One
of the new strands offered is the ''Electrical Installation and Maintenance'' (EIM). The
program EIM aims to provide individuals with the necessary knowledge, skills, and
practical experience to excel in the field of electrical systems and maintenance. However,
little research has been conducted to understand the lived experiences of Senior High
School-EIM students, which is critical to assessing the effectiveness of the program and

types of risks is carried out for wind turbines during four phases, namely: transportation,
installation, operation and maintenance. This work mainly focuses on onshore type of
wind turbines and briefly mentioning the offshore wind turbines. The introduction gives
an overview of the main parts and components of wind turbine, in addition to discussing
the process of risk assessment and the procedure to be followed in this study. The paper
focuses on the following four risks: the risk of transporting large-scale wind turbine parts
and components, the risk of workers slipping, tripping and falling during installation and
maintenance of wind turbines, the risk of working in confined spaces, and finally the risk
of ice accretion and irregular shedding when the wind turbine is in operation phase or
even when it is stationary. The last type of risk is highly observed in cold climate regions.
The four mentioned types of risks are the main ones out of the many risks that could
appear during transporting, installing, operating and maintaining wind turbines. The main
aim of this work is to contribute in the proper risk assessment of potential hazards, which
enhances the ability to devise passive and active protection measures to reduce the effects
of a catastrophic event.

Chapter 4
This chapter answers the research questions by considering the literature review
and interview findings. The findings and discussion are organized based on the research
and interview questions, making it easier to identify patterns and direct responses from
the participants.
Research Question 1: What are the specific hazards and risks that Grade-11 EIM
This research question tries to ask the specific hazards and risks that the EIM
confirmed that self-experiences, and self-challenges to integrate theory and practice are
among the driving forces of encountering the hazards and risks in their field of study.
From the responses, it can be inferred that the participants seemed fully understand the
experiences and challenges behind encountering the specific hazards and risks to their
study. One interview question below shows the various responses of the participants:
“The specific hazards and risks that I encountered in EIM is electric shock in the
actual presentation.”

In research question number three, the focus is on how the lived experiences of
Grade 11 EIM students shape their attitudes and behaviors towards safety. The finding
shows that among the effective ways are through good time management, being very
responsible, and expressing personal life. One interview question below shows the

Conclusions
Researchers about understanding hazards and risks are widely been conducted in
different countries but those researchers lack of knowledge about how they face their
everyday lived experiences and how they conquer every hazard and risks they encounter.
This study will help to fully understand the experiences of EIM students who
encountered the hazards and risks. The results of the evidence drawn from a voluminous
body of sources show that self-challenges’ is one of the driving forces of understanding
hazards and risks wherein they want to support their life challenges and be responsible.
Self-confidence and self-development is also driving forces. They show their confidence
to prove that they’re doing it so well. And they want to improve themselves, to achieve
their goals and gain more experiences that could be possibly use in their future. Most of
the reasons why students experience hazards and risks in their field of study because of
losing confidence. This serves as self-reflection for the students who wants to take the
Electrical Installation and Maintenance (EIM) strand. Avoiding the hazards and risks
during the actual presentation in field of study was not easy. You can’t expect what will

field of study.
